Top 20 antennas with AliExpress

About antennas and their purpose for a long time known to a wide range of consumers. These simple devices are designed to receive and transmit signals of a certain frequency to the working device, which usually are televisions, tuners or Wi-Fi routers.

All antennas are divided into three types:

• internal (room) - installed directly inside the house, in the part where the signal is most stable;
• external (street) - mounted in the highest (or most optimal) point of open space for better reception of signals;
• satellite dish-type antennas designed to receive signals from broadcasting orbital satellites.

Despite the fact that antennas are a commodity, in general, monotonous and illiquid, there is a big wave of competition among manufacturers in the retail market. With the development and popularization of Chinese marketplaces, such has become even more, as large “and small” western companies have added stable “conveyors” from the Middle Kingdom. Therefore, carefully examining the entire range of products offered by the website "Aliexpress", we have selected for you the 20 best antennas for TV and Wi-Fi, divided into four main categories.

As criteria for the selection of goods in the rating were taken:

• popularity with domestic consumers, the number of positive and negative reviews about the purchase;
• compliance with the technical characteristics of the declared value;
• the degree of antenna reliability, overall workmanship;
• the adequacy of the logistics aspects of companies, the duration of delivery;
• the degree of safety of purchase during transportation.

Top room TV antennas

Most modern TVs are initially equipped with signal amplifiers. A digital set-top box built into modern models is itself a transmitter, and there is no need to install powerful long-range antennas to receive a quality signal. In this case, the best option would be to purchase an indoor model. It does not require complex installation and copes with the task. Yes, and such antennas are cheaper than street ones, which is also important.

5 D － LENP Telescopic

The simplest model, without frills and exclusive design solutions. This is a common telescopic tube, familiar to us from radio receivers from the past. The antenna has no cable.It is simply inserted into the TV jack and starts working without any additional settings.

Of course, the range and frequency of this model are not the highest, and with a strong distance from the transmitting device, the quality of the received signal may be poor. This model is suitable for those who do not have big problems with the received signal. In addition, the antenna has the lowest price of all the models described. There is simply nothing to be expensive here, and the reviews on AliExpress are extremely positive. Buyers celebrate fast delivery and quality packaging. That is, cases where a broken item was delivered are not described. On the performance and not talk. In such a simple model, there is simply nothing to fail.

4 ACEHE CJH-128B

A good indoor antenna for a TV, the performance of which depends strongly on the place of use. Despite, in general, not the highest sales figures, the CJH-128B is in steady demand among Russian buyers, but it receives conflicting reviews about the general condition and quality of its functions.

Frequencies perceived by the antenna vary in the range from 172 to 240 for radio and from 470 to 862 MHz for channels, which meets all modern standards of television broadcasting. And if in this component to ACEHE CJH-128B there are no complaints, then there are big questions about the configuration and the internal structure. Many users have noted the complete inability of the antenna to receive even confident signals, indicating a breakdown or absence inside the amplifier. Others, on the contrary, praise the quality and mark the appearance of a larger number of channels than when using the standard and antediluvian "slingshot". On whose side the truth is, it is impossible to understand, but with proper operation and taking into account the pleasant appearance, this antenna model is well worth buying.

3 ONLENY DVB-T Digital Terrestrial TV Receiver

Compact, cheap, and at the same time one of the most effective antennas for TV, presented on the “Aliexpress” marketplace, which is in steady demand from domestic buyers.

Despite the fact that the size of ONLENY DVB-T Digital Terrestrial TV Receiver leaves much to be desired (only 15 centimeters in height) and at the start of use does not inspire any confidence, the process of its operation leaves out of business more famous competitors. Of course, it is not necessary to expect a significant improvement in hopelessly weak signals, however, the effect of using on medium quality channels becomes noticeable immediately. The ranges of received frequencies vary from 174 to 230 and from 470 to 862 MHz - the first is responsible for the quality of the radio, and the second is directly responsible for the quality of the picture.

As for consumers, only a few expressed dissatisfaction with the process of DVB-T Digital Terrestrial TV Receiver. Probably, the place of use is to blame for everything, since in other cases there are no complaints about the efficiency or the process of delivery, and even less of the cost.

2 docooler tv antenna

The second place in the rating goes to the flexible television antenna docooler TV Antenna, which can include good amplifier parameters and an excellent appearance. In fact, this antenna is a "mat", made of plastic, the consistency close to ordinary rubber. All connecting wires and antenna circuit are in a flexible sheath, clearly distinguished on a dark background. The fastening is made in the form of a special adhesive tape, which excludes the possibility of removing the device outside the house or apartment.

All the disadvantages of docooler TV Antenna are somehow related to the location and remoteness of the repeater: the actual range of its operation is 35 kilometers.Therefore, in the city, the installation and use of the antenna does not carry any problems, while in the villages and in the suburban areas the effect of its use may be zero.

1 YCDC EL0465

The antenna, the main place of use of which (in the conditions of Russia) was in the country houses and private houses. Talking about low quality and unsuitable level of reliability in this case is not necessary - even with a considerable distance from the repeater (which, again, in Russia is very common) YCDC EL0465 shows a consistently high signal level. Moreover, in order to dramatically improve the quality, many users resort to placing the antenna not in the four walls, but on the street. It is clear that such measures lead to a decrease in the operational life of the device ... but the method really works, and the cost of the antenna itself does not go beyond the boundaries of reasonable.

Of the other pleasant things, you can pick out a good fixing suction cup, which calmly interacts with lacquered wood, glass and metal, making it convenient to place the YCDC EL0465 without much difficulty. The delivery time of the seller does not break - the average time of receipt of the package by the customer is 18-20 days.

Best outdoor TV antennas

Analog television with a low quality of the received signal distorted the picture and could cause interference. With digital TV, everything is different, and if the signal is too weak, the image may not appear at all, or constantly scatter into pixels. This happens mainly at a great distance from the source, which has a limited radius of action. The best solution in this situation is an outdoor antenna with a large range and power.

5 Particle & band

In some cases, a standard indoor or even outdoor antenna is not enough for stable reception of a digital TV signal, and in this case there is a need for a powerful receiving device with a long range. This model does not have a stylish design, but has a significant advantage over competitors. Namely, the possibility of attaching additional sections to enhance the signal. You can add two sections in total. They are sold separately, and as the reviews show, in most cases they are not necessary.

The antenna perfectly receives the signal at a distance of over one hundred kilometers, without additional sections, and the model itself is already equipped with an amplifier. Simply put, this antenna is suitable for those who live far from the TV signal transmitter. Or for installation in the country, where previously it was possible to receive only a satellite signal. Also, the model has two inclined plates, adjustable in a vertical angle. This configuration allows you to configure the device at any height, without the need to climb on a high mast.

4 Satxtram

The familiar configuration of street antennas is an intricate interweaving of metal tubes. They do not always look attractive, but there are models made in a completely different form. The SATXTREM antenna is a black rectangle measuring only 25 by 23 centimeters with a convex front part and a mount on the back side. Equipment is installed on a special mast, but thanks to the built-in amplifier, it is not necessary to raise the antenna too high.

According to reviews from Aliexpress, the antenna perfectly captures the signal even when installing a house, while the range of the transmitter may exceed 100 kilometers. The manufacturer indicates in the annotation 160 miles, which corresponds to approximately 250 kilometers, but apparently, this figure is somewhat overestimated. However, one hundred kilometers without lifting to a great height is also a good result. Separately, you need to say about the delivery. On AliExpress the antenna can be purchased both in China and Russia.At the same time shipping from China will be more expensive and longer.

3 ONLENY LAN-1054

The simplest and at the same time the most original idea of ​​the appearance of an outdoor TV antenna came to mind to ONLENY manufacturers - by placing all the “stuffing” inside a plastic tube and closing both ends with special plugs (one of which is intended for laying wires), they created quite tolerable and an inexpensive antenna for receiving HD TV signals.

Of the LAN-1054 performance, the widest range of perceived frequencies, ranging from 45 to 860 MHz, stands out most of all. In essence, this is the end of the description of the technical capabilities of the antenna, because neither the signal amplifier, nor any other interesting functions were incorporated into it. But there is a drawback, and quite weighty. While in other models the length of the complete connecting cable reaches 15 meters, in ONLENY LAN-1054 it is equal to two meters, because of which a strict limitation is imposed on the placement of the antenna. To cope with this disorder, you can buy an adapter longer, but this leads to additional expenses, which, as you know, no one likes.

2 Vidbox suxin

Another representative of the company VIDBOX is a simple and unpretentious, but very stable in operation model SUXIN. In general, the traditional view of the street antenna does not contain any frills, thus it is much better to fit into the realities of any "courtyard" exterior. The technical part highlights the abundance of supported functions, the impedance at 75 Ohms (standard for receiving television signals), as well as the range of perceived frequencies at the level of 470-860 MHz.

The built-in VIDBOX SUXIN amplifier increases the level of signals by 6 dBi, which is quite enough for comfortable broadcasting even “weak” channels. If you do not take into account the level of cost, then the only serious drawback of the model is the high probability of deformation of the light and pliable petals during transportation. On the part of the consolidation, configuration, connection and delivery time buyers have absolutely no complaints.

1 VIDBOX 05BOA1

Despite the fact that the general interest in street type TV antennas among users is small, VIDBOX has released a whole line of high-quality special devices that alone can cover the entire segment. A prominent representative (and, to some extent, the flagship) of this series is the model 05BOA1, designed to work in a wide frequency range (from 470 to 860 MHz).

According to the developers, this antenna is capable of receiving signals from HDTV, DVBT / DVBT2, ISDBT and ATSC profiles, which makes it universal. Unfortunately, among consumers there was not one of those who would check the work in the model in all the indicated modes, however, the overall quality of signal reception does not cause any complaints to anyone. Also noteworthy is the fact that the antenna gain of the VIDBOX 05BOA1 is 7 dBi, due to which it is able to “pull” even very weak signals, providing a clear picture and a tolerable sound quality.

The best antennas for a Wi-Fi router

The main problem with most Wi-Fi routers is a weak transmitted signal. A few meters from the device, you can still observe the maximum number of bars, but when you remove or even a non-significant obstacle in the signal path, its level drops dramatically.

For large houses or apartments, this problem is particularly relevant, since you have to either buy another router, connecting it with the first one or somehow amplify the signal. Fortunately, today there are no problems with this, and the best way out is to purchase an additional antenna, thereby increasing the range of your device.

5 Etmakit

Standard antennas for Wi-Fi routers often leave much to be desired. The low signal level and the power of the built-in transmitter significantly complicate the operation of the device when moving more than 10 meters away from it. Etmakit antenna module is an excellent way out of this situation.

The model has a telescopic design that allows you to increase the radius of the device, and ensures its uninterrupted passage through obstacles. 4 sections of the antenna increase its initial length by almost three times, and the metal mounting socket makes it durable. Replacing the antenna is not difficult, and it does not even need special tools. Will delight the buyer and the price of the device, as well as fast delivery, about which they write a lot in the responses to this product. Simply put, if your router has insufficient power and its signal level drops significantly in the next room, the antenna from Etmakit will be an excellent and inexpensive solution to the problem.

4 Sasadigital

The capacity of Wi-Fi routers depends on two factors: the integrated transmitter and the external antenna. Expensive models were originally equipped with powerful components, and in some versions there are 6 or even 8 antennas. However, two antennas are able to give a good result. But only if they are of high quality.

This model is intended to replace the standard modules of the router. It has an increased power level and is easily mounted without tools. It is enough to unscrew the old module and replace it with a new one. Also, this antenna is useful in case of breakage of the old, which is also not uncommon, given the poor quality of plastic used in the manufacture of standard models. The bundle includes two segments at once, that is, the price is indicated not for one antenna, but for two, and in the reviews they note the good quality of the packaging and the quick response of the seller to the order, which is a great advantage for such a platform like Aliexpress.

3 INNO PM2400-WT200BF

INNO PM2400-WT200BF is a typical multi-antenna, suitable for improving the signal quality of any radio devices. Despite the fact that the vast majority of customers use it for its intended purpose (enhancing the Wi-Fi signal and improving the quality of the Internet connection), some craftsmen have more extravagant methods of application (for remotes from quadcopter or radio-controlled mechanical models of equipment).

If in the competitive models with the antenna the USB adapter was also supplied (in a separate or integrated version), then in INNO PM2400-WT200BF there is simply no adapter. In fact, this model is an ordinary consumables, the installation of which should be carried out on an already existing transition unit. Such a delivery option does not allow to place the model higher than the third place, but it does not cancel the fact of low cost and high quality of performance, which ensures greater popularity of the antenna among domestic consumers.

2 EASYIDEA WA102155

Wi-Fi antenna EASYIDEA WA102155 - this is another budget option to improve the quality of a wireless Internet connection. The stock device operates at a standard frequency of 2.4 GHz and provides the standard streaming speed of 150 Mbps without causing losses at the reception / transmission stage. The antenna with the USB adapter is not made at the same time, which allows you to easily change consumables in the event of a breakdown.

According to customer reviews, the adapter / antenna also shows excellent results in terms of operating steam: the range of detection of networks when installing equipment expands about four to five times. Delivery speed is also satisfactory: on average, WA102155 comes in 14-15 days. But in terms of the preservation of the elements of the kit there are some complaints on the way.Some users complain that everything is laid in a package without an individual wrapper, which is why scratches and scuffs often remain on the disk. This leads to the fact that it is not possible to install drivers from a damaged carrier, and the entire purchase (albeit an inexpensive one) turns into ordinary junk.

1 EDUP EP-MS8551

One of the best antennas in its class, combining not only extra-low price, but also high quality (confirmed by certificates of compliance with international standards). The company EDUP is familiar to domestic consumers firsthand - distributors of its products and to this day remain the leading stores of household and digital equipment, located on the territory of major cities of Russia. Especially since now their products can be bought directly, and this fact is good news.

The main advantages of the antenna itself are the following aspects:

• It is compatible with all "running" versions of Windows (XP, 7, 8 and 10), as well as Mac OS10 and 10.11;
• supports the standard for Wi-Fi networks speed of 150 Mbit / s, without “eating” the signal during the transmit / receive phase;
• able to work in the access point mode, extending the network coverage radius almost fivefold.

Considering the low cost and almost “zero” defect detected at the delivery stage, EP-MS8551 is the most optimal and successful option for such a large-scale “pumping” of the Internet connection.

The best signal amplifiers for TV antennas

Most modern antennas that receive television are initially equipped with amplifiers. But if it is not about satellite systems, their quality is often too low to provide a powerful and uninterrupted digital signal, especially at a great distance from the transmitting device.

In this case, special amplifiers come to help, which are intermediaries between the TV and the antenna itself. They do not require special skills for installation and do an excellent job with the task. Also, amplifiers can be used with a room antenna and a weak signal. In this case, the television begins to work as with a street receiver.

5 Wecast Signal Booster

The simplest model without designer excesses. A compact amplifier that acts as an intermediary between a television device and the antenna itself. The device is powered via a USB cable, built-in and non-removable. On the one hand, this is a minus, since replacing the wire without opening the case will not work, on the other hand, plus, since there are no connectors that often fail.

Antenna cable is located near the power supply, and has a length of almost two meters, which is very convenient and rarely found in such budget models. On the back of the case there is an entrance where the antenna is connected directly, and on the side is an indicator indicating that the device is working. The manufacturer indicates that this model can even improve the satellite signal, but most likely it is a marketing ploy, since such devices often serve not to significantly enhance the input signal, but to suppress interference.

4 ANENG

Owners of set-top boxes and indoor antennas often encounter situations where the signal either disappears completely or becomes too weak to transmit images of digital quality. There can be a lot of reasons for the occurrence of such interference, often even cars passing by the house contribute to this. And so that the image quality does not fall and is stable, it is necessary to use an amplifier.

This model is not intended to enhance the initially weak signal and serves only to suppress interference. The device is powered from the network, and is powered via a USB cable, which is included. The cable is removable and can easily be replaced in case of failure.The device is connected to the TV and the antenna, working as an intermediary, and it should be understood that if the signal is initially poor, the satellite quality of this device will not provide. But it will allow to receive a picture without hindrances and failures, without buying a street antenna.

3 Wecast

The most powerful antenna signal amplifier capable of operating at the maximum distance from the source. This is no longer a simple box of unknown purpose, but a full-fledged high-tech device. The amplifier is mounted to the wall and has the ability to connect directly to the three TVs. The convenient location of the connection jacks is another advantage. The place to connect the antenna is on the one hand, and the outputs on the TVs on the other.

The amplifier is powered from the mains, that is, is included in a regular household outlet. It should also be remembered that the bundle does not include cables, so you will have to connect the antenna and the receiving device yourself. But the power cable is quite long, which is an important advantage, since you do not have to build it up or use extension cords, which always causes inconvenience.

2 RV77

A simple device that can turn even the weakest TV signal into a powerful and clear one. The main advantage of this model is compactness. This is a small box that connects directly to the TV and has two cables. The first cable is designed for connection to the antenna, indoor or outdoor. And the second for powering the amplifier via USB.

The disadvantages include the fact that there is no USB adapter bundled with the device, so you will have to buy it separately. And the wires are quite short, which can cause some difficulties when connecting the device. However, you should pay attention to the cost. This is one of the cheapest models, while having rather high technical characteristics, so the drawbacks are not so significant, especially considering the seller’s fast response speed, which is much talked about in the reviews for this product.

1 Mayitr

The most powerful adapter for signal amplification, presented on AliExpress. The device is equipped with 6 sockets, which allows you to connect to it several devices that will work independently of each other. The amplifier is powered from the network and has special mounts for mounting on the wall. This is a fairly large model in size, so its placement is better to take care in advance.

Among the shortcomings can be identified the absence of Russian or English in the inscriptions on the device, but even without this, everything is intuitively clear. The extreme socket is intended for connecting the device to the antenna, and all the rest are places for connecting TV devices. As for the benefits, in addition to the high power of the amplifier itself, customers note fast delivery and quality packaging. Silent price can scare away, but remember that buying such an amplifier should be only when there are many televisions in the house, the signal to which must be strengthened. For 1-2 devices there are cheaper and more compact models.
